imadobson: March 2015

March 26, 2015. Ellis loves Lorde. Crying spell way. Too early in the morning that can't be calmed? Put on some Lorde and he'll be asleep in minutes. We call it 'the big guns' when we have to use this measure. And thankfully, we haven't had to use the big guns for quite some time. I should probably go knock on some wood. I am extremely thrilled to report that Ellis is spitting up (a little). Less and his eye is starting to look (a little). Ellis has started crawling! Ellis finally cut his first tooth!

September 24, 2014. Conor has been extremely busy these past couple of weeks. This is what i get when i ask him to smile for his first day of school picture. goodness, i love that kid. When i ask him to smile normal he loses his enthusiasm. I realize my instruction isn't helping and ask him to smile just one more time so i can get a good picture. I give up and ask his sister to step in. Anywho, when i was talking to carolyn about conor's latest 'talent' she assured me that lying was completely normal for...

August 27, 2015. The King has turned 1. It made my heart both hurt and happy to see him hit this milestone. We had a little royal family celebration in the morning with cupcakes, presents, and his birthday DVD. After his morning nap we met Cody for lunch at Moochie's and brought cupcakes in to the office. Maybe you should lay off the cupcakes Ellis. That double chin doesn't lie. Ellis is not all tantrums though, he's still a pretty happy, determined little guy. I found a fly.". I've caught him saying MaM...

imadobson: June 2015
http://nedobson.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
June 21, 2015. Ellis has earned a new nickname. Dora. Dora the Explorer. My days of sitting on a blanket at the park and watching the older kids play are gone. The boy is now on the move. And he couldn't be any happier about it. Ellis squeals and growls and squeezes his hands into fists when he sees something he wants. Him squeezing his hands when he sees you will for sure, make your day. Ellis is still biting me. I have been bitten on the bum, the leg, the shoulder, and the chest all multiple times.

imadobson: May 2015
http://nedobson.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
May 21, 2015. Ellis has been busy. He now has 6, extremely sharp, teeth. He likes to gnaw on our wooden bed frame, the bottom of my guitar while I'm having a jam session, and me. This kid is constantly trying to bite me! It's like living in a real life Shark Week and I always have to be on my guard. Ellis has started walking with the walker and trying to stand without holding on to anything. He can climb all the way to the top of the stairs and squeals with the delight the whole way. I told Ellis that I ...

imadobson: Arachnophobia
http://nedobson.blogspot.com/2015/08/arachnophobia.html
August 11, 2015. I have fallen in love with you. You do have one, teeny tiny, awful flaw though that I'm having a hard time overlooking. Spiders. So many spiders. I loathe spiders. You make my insides boil, my outsides writhe, and choice words go through my head. I have to see and deal with at least. 2 of you a day. I have nightmares about spiders. Yes, I'm 31 and have nightmares about spiders. My house is spotless! The erratic lady with the shoe. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Neve Studio Art Blog.

imadobson: Grace
http://nedobson.blogspot.com/2015/08/grace.html
August 04, 2015. I have been meaning to post about this experience for the past 3 years but kept putting it off because I was never sure how to record it. The Bible Dictionary states: "It is likewise through the grace of the Lord that individuals, through faith in the Atonement of Jesus Christ and repentance of their sins, receive strength and assistance to do good works that they otherwise would not be able to maintain if left to their own means.". I then gave the definition of desire. I taught gospel d...

http://nedobson.blogspot.com/2015/07/parenting-win.html
July 26, 2015. Cody and I pulled off the ultimate surprise this year. We kept a mac daddy secret, told a few white lies and took the kids on their first ever Disneyland adventure. When Emmi asked if I brought their swimsuits I told them I brought what we needed. They were too tired to ask anymore questions so we excitedly drove to Anaheim and had NO traffic! We're going to Disneyland! A very anticlimactic, "really? We're going to Disneyland? But I thought that wasn't the plan? I made them all swear an oa...

July 29, 2015. Conor has turned into a major gamer. He would play on the iPad or Nintendo DS all day if I let him. On our drive to California he very sweetly said, "Im trying to win this game, so could you please stop talking to me? Con calls H Rock H&M. So I hear, "hey, it's H&M! Almost on the daily. Conor loves soccer. We think he loves the idea of soccer more than actually playing it though. He'll play but because he's competitive and. Yesterday when we were driving home from a fun day of hiking in th...

http://nedobson.blogspot.com/2015/07/san-elijo.html
July 26, 2015. San Elijo is one of my favorite places to go on vacation. I have the best memories from my childhood camping on the beach. Cody and I have been married for just over 9 years and we have been able to go and create our own, fantastic memories 7 out of those 9 years. Here's a little trip down memory lane. 2007 Cody's first year experiencing San Elijo and all of it's sandy, camping glory. We both neglected to sunscreen our feet. Youch. Look at those young, spring chickens! The kids played non ...
